Here is a picture of Gyeongbokgung Palace. You can walk around Gyeongbokgung Palace and see the beautiful scenery. You can also see the filming location of the TV series. There are so many Chinese tour groups in Gyeongbokgung Palace! So for friends who are traveling independently, I will tell you a little secret. You can follow them and listen to the tour guide's explanation. Come out of Gwanghwamun and go directly to Gwanghwamun Square to take a look.
There are small streams on both sides of Gwanghwamun Square. According to the information, there is a waterway with a width of 1 meter, a length of 365 meters, and a depth of 2 centimeters on both sides of Gwanghwamun Square. Starting from Gwanghwamun Square, the waterway on the east side (next to Kyobo Library) is paved with 617 stone slabs. Since the founding of the Joseon Dynasty in 1392, the main history of Korea has been recorded on these stone slabs one by one by year.
The waterway on the west side (Sejong Center) is paved with uncarved stone slabs, which are probably prepared for the future recording of Korean history. The bronze statue of King Sejong. Another picture from Baidu, the bronze statue of General Yi Sun-sin. It is to the south of King Sejong. At the south end of Gwanghwamun Square, walk east of the intersection and you can easily see the famous symbol of Cheonggyecheon.
According to the guide I made before, follow the red arrow and you can walk to Myeongdong smoothly. It's easy to find! Selfie of Cheonggyecheon Stream. I have to say that Yunluo didn't take any photos in Myeongdong, so I won't post them. The lunch I had with An Chuyu at a Chinese restaurant in Myeongdong was quite delicious. Then Yunluo and An Chuyu went to Myeongdong Catholic Church.
(The green area on the right in the picture below) The scenery of the church is very good and very suitable for taking pictures. Remember! When you enter the church, try not to take pictures or make loud noises, so as to give the people praying inside a quiet environment. OU. There is an EXO peripheral product store in youngplaz (see the leftmost side of the picture above for the specific location, next to Lotte Duty Free Shop).
Unfortunately, the Fanfan peripherals I liked were removed a long time ago. Let's take a photo with these young teams. I hope they are doing well. After shopping in Lotte Duty Free Shop, we went directly to the next destination - N Seoul Tower. It was also easy to get there. But Yunluo and An Chuyu were already tired from shopping, so it would be a bit difficult to walk. Similarly, follow the red arrows on the map.
This is the first small elevator leading to the Namsan elevator. Friends who don't want to wait in line can take the stairs next to it. This small elevator is free, but the elevator is slow. After getting off the small elevator, the big cable car station hall is in front of you. Yunluo and An Chuyu bought a round trip ticket for 17,000 won/2 people. Similarly, if there are few people, you can get on the cable car in no time!
This is the fried potato shop that EXOshowtime visited. Take a picture and be a die-hard fan. nNamsan Tower is the most important destination for Yunluo during this visit to Seoul. He also planned the time in advance to see the view at dawn, watch the night fall from the top of the tower, and then watch the lights light up the city of Seoul. This time, his dream came true.
Thanks to An Chuyu for accompanying Yunluo without complaining about being tired. Seoul Tower is very beautiful. It might be better if the pictures were photoshopped. (I was lazy this time and did not photoshop the pictures in the whole article. I just uploaded them with watermarks.) The hand-painted pictures of the first floor observation deck. Yunluo really likes Korean hand-painted pictures. They are very cute. This is the floor introduction of Seoul Tower on the Hanchao website. Pay special attention to this.
Friends who are traveling independently. The ticket office is all in English and Korean, no Chinese!! Friends who are not good at English, be sure to check carefully before buying, otherwise it will be a waste of money if you buy a ticket that includes the restaurant. Yunluo forgot what the ticket that only goes to the observation deck is called, anyway, I was scared when I bought the ticket. I was afraid of buying the wrong one. Is it observation? If you forget, the ticket staff will tell you.
Go to B1 and take the elevator. Just follow the instructions. Take the elevator directly to the top of the tower. The view is really good, find the direction of Beijing. Take a picture. Watch the sunset and night fall. The night view taken by ordinary Sony cameras is also very beautiful. I like these two night views very much. This is the view taken to the north. This is the night view in the direction. Big lips.
I regret not buying this couple's outfit. The more I look at it, the more I like it. What should I do? Is there anyone who can buy it for me? Oh, oh. After seeing enough of the beautiful scenery, it was late at night, so I went down the Nanshan Tower. I came to the famous big peach heart on the first floor. It turned out that there were many such seats here, but they were all for tourists to sit on and rest when they were tired. This chair was the only one that was empty, so I quickly sat on it and let An Chuyu take a picture.
I was so happy. The only regret was that Yunluo brought a small lock from Beijing, but she didn't bring it with her. It's a pity, but as the saying goes, regrets make things more beautiful. We went back down the mountain and took the subway back to the hotel from Myeongdong subway station. We bought the banana milk that everyone praised at the 711 downstairs of the hotel.
Cantaloupe flavor. 1300 won a bottle. How to say it? The taste of childhood!! It was during the Incheon Asian Games! The outstanding performances of Korean athletes were broadcast everywhere on TV. Ewhadong Street Art Museum day3inseoul itinerary: Bukchon Hanok Village - Insadong - Ewhadong Street Art Museum Get up early, get up early.
Special reminder, Bukchon Hanok Village is destined to be a popular tourist destination, so friends who don't want to use a lot of people as human backgrounds should pay attention to getting up early and taking good photos when there are few people. Yunluo and Anchu met at Bukchon Hanok Village at around 9 o'clock. Below is the map of Bukchon. (This map is a screenshot of the Hanchao map.
A must-have for making a guide!!! The conscience of the industry, you can rely on it for free travel!!!) The purple and pink marks in the picture are the famous 8 Bukchon scenes, but some of them are really hard to find! Exit 2 of Anguk Station on Subway Line 3. Note: The location of the car is an information booth. You will see it when you walk along the road from the subway exit.
When you go in, you can ask the staff inside for a clear A4 paper map of Beicun. Follow that route and you can finish the tour in about 2 hours. The famous Beicun Eight Scenic Spots on the official website are the best views taken at these 8 places. There used to be ground markings, but now they have all been removed. You can only follow the map and compare it with the pictures.
Actually, the scenery everywhere is beautiful, it just depends on how you look at it. A cute toy store, full of memories. Innocence. A view of Bukchon. It seems to be an experience store. There is no one in the background. All you can see are traditional Korean houses, just like in a Korean TV series. Hahaha, Yunluo should learn from it too. I have to say, Seoul's graffiti culture is really great!
Gradually, more and more tourists came. Among the tourists, there were Chinese tour groups, Korean tour groups, and Korean middle school student groups. Pay special attention here. Yunluo believes that other guides have also written that this is a residential area and ordinary residents still live here. There are also cute reminder signs, don't make loud noises, don't affect the lives of people here, remember!
Come out to play. You represent a country, don't do anything that will bring shame to the country. After visiting Bukchon, go back the same way, back to where you exit the subway, walk south, and you will immediately arrive at Insadong. Yes! Right away! It's very close. Let Yunluo tell you how to get from Bukchon to Insadong? Yunluo doesn't know either.
Yunluo and Anchuyu just walked south by feeling and finally came out. Fortunately, there is Google Maps. You can turn on the wifi to see your location, which is convenient and easy to use. Insadong. It is another famous attraction. The Insadong sign that appears frequently in various guides is not to be worried about not being able to find it. I also ate the poop snack that appears frequently.
1000 won each, there are big walnut kernels in the bean paste, recommended! The big flower that appears frequently! Well, there is also the graffiti on the big flower, hahahaha to be honest, I am a little disappointed, they are all small shops. Maybe it was the drizzle that day. It affected my mood. Afterwards, I went to the Insadong branch of Gugwan to experience the Korean clothing photo project.
The purple mark on the map is it, there is no problem with communication. The clerks can understand Chinese, and there are many Chinese tourists, so don't worry about the language problem. The price is reasonable, Yunluo bought unlimited photos for about 120 RMB. See the map mark below for details. Thanks to An Chuyu for choosing the most ordinary clothes for Yunluo's photo, the pink is bright and youthful.
The headdress cost about 30 RMB, otherwise the long hair would not look good in the photo. Since there are more expensive palace costumes to choose from, An Chuyu said that Yunluo's outfit must be what the palace maids wore back then. Here's a full-body photo. Finally, I set the camera to countdown mode and took a photo with An Chuyu. Yunluo loves An Chuyu and has had enough of taking photos.
Continue to the next stop. The rain in the sky comes and goes. It doesn't affect the nature of Yunluo and An Chuyu's play. The next stop is Lihuadong "Street Art Museum". Exit 2 of Hyehwa Station on Subway Line 4, and then see the text description below. In fact, this place is not as famous as other scenic spots, but it is in the guide in the early stage.
The appearance rate is also very high. Since this trip with An Chuyu is a scenic spot tour, this stop is included in the itinerary. I want to experience the creativity of Korean hand-painted graffiti. Yunluo also took an iPad and checked the route while walking. He saw the small sculpture smoothly. But the rain in the sky gradually began to fall again. Without further ado, let's take a look at the pictures.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it had reached its peak. In order to take pictures, Yunluo was willing to get wet in the rain, but in fact, he was saying to himself, "Hurry up! An Chuyu, take pictures!" After walking all day, Yunluo and An Chuyu didn't rest much. They originally planned to go to Banpu Bridge to see the scenery of Rainbow Bridge in the evening, but because of the rain, An Chuyu asked to change it to the fourth day.
I had no choice but to follow my initial feelings and return to the hotel to save my energy! After gathering my energy, it was time to get up early again. Take subway line 2, get off at Ewha University Station, and exit at Exit 2. Keep walking north until you reach the main entrance of Ewha Womans University. It is an easy walk. Ewha Womans University is one of the oldest universities in Seoul. It was founded in early 1887 and is the first women's university in Korea.
It represents the highest standard of female education in South Korea, and many wives of the presidents graduated from here. The most famous thing about Ewha University is the pear blossom wall at the main entrance. The wall is white and clean, and I really want to touch it. An Chuyu is rarely photographed in the group photo. An Chuyu is the school beauty in Yunluo's eyes, haha, beautiful. Two steps forward is the sunken library.
I was amazed at the creativity of the designers. We came early and there were very few people! It was worth getting up early. I walked to the other end of the sunken square and turned around to take a picture. The main building of Ewha University. I don’t know if this main building means the main teaching building of the school as Yunluo understood it. This is the bronze statue of Dr. Kim Hwo-ran. I don’t know what it is for. It was actually okay that morning.
It was a bit cold. The school garden was beautiful. You had to climb several steps to see the auditorium. The pink high heels that appeared frequently in various guides. The specific location is shown at the arrow in the picture. It was so big!!! It was too early, after 9 o'clock, and most of the shops were closed. In fact, the itinerary included Sinchon and Hongdae Station.
But after reading the information about Seoul attractions, An Chuyu changed the itinerary temporarily. So Yunluo also gave up the Hello Kitty Cafe and the 3D Art Museum. Friends who want to go to Sinchon and Hongdae can walk there from Ewha Womans University if they have enough time. An Chuyu wanted to take the Seoul sightseeing bus, so he looked at the guide.
Go to the ticket office at the southwest corner of Guanghuamen Square to buy a ticket and take the bus. The ticket office and the bus station are shown in the picture. The bus ticket office is shown in the picture below. It seems that there are a certain number of tickets every day. Once they are sold out, they will not be sold. After Yunluo and An Chuyu sat down for a while, they looked at the ticket office and found that one window was closed. If you want to sit close to the bus, it is best to buy it early.
Yunluo and Anchuyu chose line A, 70 RMB per person. Unlimited rides per day. The appearance of the sightseeing bus. When I went there on National Day, the bus still looked like Angelababy in the picture below. There were headphones in multiple languages on the bus. When it arrived at a stop, the driver would change the stop. The headphones automatically explained that you should pay attention to keeping the bus clean on the sightseeing bus.
After the first ring line, the driver will pick up the garbage on the bus by himself. Civilized travel starts with Yunluo. These are the street scenes and famous attractions that Yunluo took on the bus. I won’t go into details. An Chuyu wishes to visit the Blue House. Tourists can only watch the Blue House from this distance. There are many bodyguards in black.
Especially in places like this, you should be careful about your words and actions... Forgive Yunluo and An Chuyu for not being able to hold a camera. The weather is unusually good! Blue sky at Cheong Wa Dae Station. Then Yunluo and An Chuyu took a sightseeing bus and got off at Dongdaemun Design Plaza Station. Is this the place to take photos of you? Actually, Yunluo thinks Dongdaemun is not very interesting to visit.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
You can also give it up, because things are expensive when there are too many people. Hmmmm. The highlight! The rainbow fountain at Banpo Bridge will spray water from April to June and September to October. The spraying time is weekdays: 12:00, 20:00, 21:00. Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays: 12:00, 17:00, 20:00, 20:30, 21:00, 21:30. It is recommended that friends check the time online before going.
After all, it would be a pity to miss the time when you go there. Exit 8 of the Express Bus Terminal on Line 3 and walk as shown in the picture below. There are water fountains on the right side of the bridge, but not on the other side. Fortunately, October is the Gaecheon Festival in Korea. It is a public holiday, so Yunluo and An Chuyu, who missed the 20:00 show, were lucky enough to welcome another show at 20:30.
Hahaha. Looking at Yunluo's expression at that time, he was very happy to meet a Korean girl who was learning Chinese. She helped them take photos and thanked each other. They watched the water fountain show in two time periods. There were a lot of people, basically all Seoul citizens. Returned the same way. It is worth mentioning that Yunluo and An Chuyu were found in the Express Bus Terminal subway station.
The entire upper floor of this subway station is dedicated to clothing. There are many stores and the clothes are cheap! There are relatively few people! It is definitely not inferior to Dongdaemun! ! Recommended!
After visiting the main attractions, I decided not to rush with An Chuyu this time. I spent a leisurely morning. The sun was very bright in the morning. I played in the small park in front of the hotel for a while and prepared to go to the last attraction of this trip - Namsangol Hanok Village. Namsangol Hanok Village is very close to the hotel. According to the map, it takes about 10 minutes to walk there.
This is a traditional Korean house, but it is newly built. I recommend this place because there are many Chinese tour groups and the tickets are free. I happened to catch a couple holding a Korean wedding here, and the groom was European. When you arrive in Korea, do as the Romans do. The steam room is a highly recommended experience! Yunluo and An Chuyu chose the Longshan steam room.
Because when Gogo watched Happy Camp earlier, they played in this place. This place is really big and famous in Seoul. It has 7 floors and is a resort-style comprehensive bathing center. Here you can enjoy steaming, hot springs and saunas. Yunluo and Anchuyu went there at night, so it is not very obvious in the photo.
It is very easy to find. Exit 1 of Yongsan Subway Station. You can see it on the right. After entering, walk through the green corridor and you will find the door to the house. It turns out that Yunluo is very lucky whenever he goes abroad. When buying tickets at the door, an old lady spoke Korean to Yunluo, which made Yunluo dumbfounded. Then she stuffed two tickets into Yunluo's pocket.
Then she went in before Yunluo could react and thank her. After careful study, she found that these were two 5,000 won coupons with a deadline of that day. Grandma Aji probably thought it would be a waste if she didn't use them on the last day and happened to see that Yunluo and An Chuyu were so good-looking, so she gave them to Yunluo and An Chuyu.
The normal ticket price is 11,000 won before 8 o'clock, and 13,000 won after 8 o'clock and on holidays. Yunluo and Anchu met there just after 8 o'clock, plus this coupon, it was about 8,000 won per person. It's a good deal, you can stay in there for 24 hours. Buy the ticket and lock your shoes. The front desk will give everyone a key card.
Once inside, you only need to use this key card to store your luggage and make purchases, and then you can pay when you leave. It's very convenient. I remember that the dressing room was on the 3rd floor. When I was taking off my clothes, an old lady from Yanji talked to Yunluo in Korean. Yunluo gestured to show that she didn't understand, and then she spoke to Yunluo in Chinese.
Then Yunluo asked her and found out that the bathhouse was on the second floor. This was the first time in Yunluo's life that she took a bath in a public bathhouse without partitions. It was a scene that I can't describe. When she first entered, she was frightened wherever she went. She lowered her head and covered her chest all the way. It seemed that if Yunluo didn't look at others, others wouldn't look at Yunluo either.
In fact, it was true. They were so natural that I didn't bother to look at Yunluo. Later, I got used to it. There were showers and baths inside. There were rows of people sitting on small stools and rubbing each other's backs very seriously. Yunluo and Gogo also soaked in the bath for a while. There were several different water temperatures. Yunluo liked the heat and stayed in it the whole time.
After returning from the trip and knowing Yunluo, I thought that Yunluo was pretty strong. After taking a shower and changing clothes, Yunluo and An Chuyu were already very hungry. They went straight to the restaurant on the first floor. This place was exactly the same as the life scene in Korean dramas. The baby at the next table kept crawling around. Yunluo was tempted by the bibimbap at their table. (To be continued...)
